Could be the size of the image in the signature. On occasion we have the same issues in Lotus Notes and it drags the machine to a crawl

Does it eventually allow you to reply to the mail or does it crash WLM ?

It eventually works, but goes very slow. And when I say eventually, I mean 5-10 minutes eventually. The images aren't particularly large. I can view the emails fine, its just when I reply and they're included in the reply. Also, I think the images are pngs... but I'll have to double check on that.

Out of curiosity, do you have the same issue if you try to forward the mail rather than reply ?

Anyhoo, do you have this problem as soon as you press the Reply or Forward button or is this after you've tried to send? If it's the latter, I assume you have AV software running, have you tried disabling the scanning of outgoing mail to test if this could be the issue?

Thanks for the reply still! Its right after I hid the reply/forward button.

I'm thinking it has to do with how the person is saving the images? Its only from select people where I have this problem.

Anyway, what makes you think this is due to the way that they are saving the images ? Have you checked your AV scanner to see if this is dragging on the images ?
